Christmas in the Holy Land
Because Israel’s population is mostly Jewish and Muslim, there are less Christmas symbols around the country than you might find elsewhere. However, in the major Christian and religious centers of Nazareth, Jerusalem’s Old City, and Bethlehem in the West Bank, you will find that Christmas is everywhere and the tale is brought to life.
Christmas in Nazareth is a special and interesting time to visit the city, with many special events. In Haifa, the Christian population combine with the other religious groups to put on theHoliday of Holidays event, whilst many events take place in the Old City of Jerusalem - check out all the events for Christmas in Jerusalem.
